GOING BACK!!

"Met friends from around the US for a break from the "real world." Had an awesome time and we are planning another "escape" in 2015. The best accommodations I have stayed at so far around Florida. It exceeded expectations!!"

Great Stay from 2/9/15 through 4/8/15

"Made spontaneous decision to go to Destin for the winter and it worked out very well. Apartment was extremely nice: VERY well equiped kitchen, nice furnishings, quiet, cable TV and coputer access, etc. Pool (heated) and 'spa tub'' on site, for private use of guests. Ample parking. Perfect location. Very pleased. Not only is complex right across the street from the ocean it's also directly across from beach ACCESS, which is a big plus. Wide beach with soft, white sand, and rock-less water. Just a nice beach! Shopping mall less than two miles away (we walked) with Olive Garden, wine bar (recommended), assorted private and franchise restaurants, as well as an Imax theater, We even took advantage of access to local yoga studio and took lessons at "Sunshine Yoga" (an activity and a studio that we recommend highly. Had a (very) minor problem with apartment and owner and her daughter remedied this immediately. The whole time we were there we were amazed by how well things worked for us in having chosen this apartment and location."

Reviewer Comments:
The rental was nice, spacious and had nice decorations. It was right across from the beach and in front of the pool. It was a bit pricey but the neighborhood was very quiet. The bed comforters seemed like they had not been washed, but we took our own blankets and you can hear the people upstairs running around. They probably just need someone on site to manage the people making noise or the ones that can't control their kids in the pool."

Great place, great price, great owner

"This was our first time staying here in Destin. We loved that we could see the gulf from the balcony and the big windows there lit the place well (the last place we stayed was dark and dreary and you couldn't see the water--not what you want for a beach vaca!). It was clean and had everything we needed for a low-maintenance week. The washer and dryer are small but will help keep the sand out of your suitcase if you're willing to run a few loads. We had to supply some toilet paper, dishwasher detergent, and laundry detergent of our own, but that's no big deal (there was enough dish soap and trash bags for us not to have to buy any more). Oh, and the pool wasn't noisy, though right below our balcony, so that was nice. Most we ever heard was a couple of kids during the day; we weren't awoken early or kept up late.
Our only complaint was the bed. After emailing Wes after the first night, we realized that the bed frame had fallen apart, and he came out as soon as he could with a new one, so that was awesome--thanks, Wes! Our sleep improved, but the box spring--new as it may be--is incredibly loud and creaky. I got more sleep near the end of the week thanks to Benadryling myself, which I can live with, but if you're a light sleeper unwilling to take meds, bring some earplugs with you.
Only other noteworthy thing I can think of for future guests is that Wes means it when he says check-out is at 10am sharp! At 9:58am all we had left to do was take out the trash, and the cleaning crew was knocking on our door and waiting in the hallway for us to depart. I'm glad we had taken the check-out time so seriously and weren't still packing and such!
We will more than likely stay here next year if it's available. We had a great experience with Wes--easy booking and all--and found the condo perfect for our needs. Looking at the pics of it above, two days into being home, I actually really miss it--it became a nice little home away from home. :)"
